A structure frame made of arches is formed with a plurality of curved frame units in parallel arrangement, where the curved frame units having butt joints (6) are connected in length by several straight bars (16) and the butt joints (6). The straight bars are connected in line at right angles with the curved frame units in order to form a truss. The curved frame units include curved bars (14) and tie members (11) where the curved bars are connected to form the curved frame units by the tie members (11) and the butt joints (6). A tension member (9) is provided between the curved frame units and the trusses.
